MSPH em Saúde Internacional (Intervenções Sociais e Comportamentais)

The SBI program offers multidisciplinary training for researchers and public health practitioners who wish to use the social sciences in the design, implementation, and evaluation of public health programs, particularly community-based interventions. The combined use of qualitative and quantitative methods is a defining characteristic of the program.

Students are trained in survey research methods, in-depth open-ended interviewing, focus group discussions, observation methods, social and environmental mapping, and computer-aided management and analysis of quantitative and qualitative data. Students are also given insight into factors related to gender and health, community participation in health programs, and cultural and environmental factors that affect global health.

Through multiple practicum opportunities, the program offers students extensive hands-on exposure to the development and implementation of social and behavioral interventions globally or locally. Upon completion of the program, students are able to provide technical assistance in assessing the socio-cultural context surrounding public health interventions, and in the development, implementation, and evaluation of social and behavior change programs to improve the health of underserved communities in a variety of settings.
